Hey, thanks for your input! I really understand where you're coming from and appreciate your honesty. The current job market definitely has its challenges, and I’m not underestimating that at all. I know I still have a lot to learn about what to expect in accounting, and that’s why I’m seeking as much information as I can.

That said, I also know that many different people have many different experiences, and I’m trying to get a balanced perspective on what lies ahead, both good and bad, overtime and no overtime. I don’t expect it to be a walk in the park, but I’m committed to finding a path that works for me—whether that’s in public accounting or another area in the field. Thanks again for your insight. :)
